4 fatal shark attacks in the last 7 months have worried beach goers in Australia. Australians south west coast line has become one of the most deadly areas for shark attacks. Beaches in the area have been closed and planes fly over head to look for more sharks. The fishing ministry in Australia announced a 5 year plan to help reduce shark attacks. One of the parts of this plan is a shark response unit which will tag great white sharks to track were they go to better protect people.
I think that this program is a good idea because it will help us understand more about sharks and how they live. Most people know very little about sharks and are afraid of them for just that reason. With more knowledge on sharks, shark attacks will become less frequent, and when they do happen people wont just freak out.
